Reckless Love

August 3, 2017 by brianmichaelsteck Leave a Comment

Heard this song from Bethel the other day. Really powerful! I hear it was first written by Cory Asbury; this version is led by Steffany Gretzinger (whose album “The Undoing” is one of my all-time favorites).

Before I spoke a word
You were singing over me
You have been so, so
Good to me
Before I took a breath
You breathed Your life in me
You have been so, so
Kind to me

[Chorus]
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights ’til I’m found, leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn’t earn it
I don’t deserve it
Still You give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God

[Verse 2]
When I was your foe, still Your love fought for me
You have been so, so
Good to me
When I felt no worth
You paid it all for me
You have been so, so
Kind to me

[Chorus]
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights ’til I’m found, leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn’t earn it
I don’t deserve it
Still You give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God

[Bridge]
There’s no shadow You won’t light up
Mountain You won’t climb up
Coming after me
There’s no wall You won’t kick down
No lie You won’t tear down
Coming after me

"Kingdom Come" by Bryan & Katie Torwalt

Worship Picks for Spring 2014

May 21, 2014 by brianmichaelsteck 1 Comment

Here’s a list of worship albums that have really been blessing me lately. Most are out of Bethel Church in Redding, California — but they’re just so good!. These albums weren’t necessarily released this year, but they’re powerful albums.

Bethel Music

"Here On Earth" by Bryan & Katie Torwalt
“Here On Earth” by Bryan & Katie Torwalt
Here on Earth by Bryan & Katie Torwalt
Bryan and Katie’s first album took me by storm. It has been a staple during my quiet times and I’m confident it will lead you into quiet and worshipful moments in God’s presence. “I’m a lover of your presence” is powerful and Spirit-stirring.

"Kingdom Come" by Bryan & Katie Torwalt

The Torwalt’s second album bears more of a neo-synth-pop sound that a lot of bands are using lately. Solid musicianship and incredible lyrics. “He is the light” is an anthem-like opening song that you’ll want on repeat.

"The Loft Sessions" by Bethel Music

Bethel Music put out this amazing and intimate worship album where one song after another draws you into worshipful rhapsodies. “Come to Me” is one of those tunes that stops time and gives you the sense that heaven and earth indeed are merging right before your eyes — you’ll be on your knees before you know it.

"Without Words" by Bethel Music

The reason I love “Without Words” from Bethel is that they adapted their music into instrumental worship that doesn’t constrict the songs to lyrics but really allows the instruments and musicians to do what they do best. Excellent background music during work.

"Come Away" by Jesus Culture

This album has quickly swept worship circles across the nation. The war-cry opening track, “Come Away”, starts gently but ends with skull-crushing drumming and a stadium of voices that are yearning to encounter God as He says “open up your heart and let me in.”

"Strong God" by New Life Worship
“Strong God” by New Life Worship
Strong God by New Life Worship
I’m a newcomer on the New Life Worship scene, as we recently moved to Colorado Springs and joined their urban congregation at New Life Downtown. “Strong God” is a live worship album proclaiming truth with passion and excellent musicianship. Great sound — totally recommend this!
